So true!
I remember reading somewhere back in the day that Boss Mustang owners tended to baby & polish their machines, while Z/28 owners thrashed their cars and replaced parts constantly...
LOL

Boss 429's only come with 3.91 or 4.30 rear end ratios

That in itself helps in keeping them off the highway accumulating mileage

….and the Hemi Mopars are in that same boat, too. For either one, once they started running poorly and needed some super tuning done, there were few people who really knew the tricks to getting them to run up to expectations. Hence, just park 'em…."I'll get it running better one of these days"....that sounds like a familiar story.

Seller paid , what ? $ 1800 buying it . That's a big cashout there . Nice work..

I know of another white Boss 9 with around 20k miles and still has the smog etc on the engine. Owner wants 250k I believe.
